Everything You Need to Know About the State of New York (NY)

The Dutch were the first to settle by the Hudson River in 1624. After two years, they founded the colony of New Amsterdam on Manhattan Island. By 1664, the English had taken control of the area and changed its name to New York. A part of the original 13 colonies, New York played a vital political and strategic role in the American Revolution. 

On July 26, 1788, New York was awarded statehood. It is a state that has housed immigrants from all over the world, making it the epitome of cosmopolitan ethics.
Between 1892 and 1954, millions of immigrants arrived in New York Harbor and passed Ellis Island as part of their process of becoming U.S. citizens. As a result, approximately 40% of Americans can trace a part of their ancestry to Ellis Island. New York City is the largest city in the United States and is a primary international economic center, housing the New York Stock Exchange and is a major international economic center.
New York is located in the Mid-Atlantic Census Bureau division in the northeastern United States. New York has an area of 54,556 square miles. This makes it the 27th largest state by total area (but 30th by land area). The state is bordered by six states in the United States. These states are Pennsylvania and New Jersey to the south, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and Vermont to the east.
New York also has the Canadian provinces of Ontario and Quebec to the north and the Atlantic Ocean to the southeast. Two of the Great Lakes: Lake Erie to the west and Lake Ontario, are also located to its northwest side.
The state capital is Albany.
New York has the moniker "the Empire State." The state's tree is the Sugar Maple, and its flower is the Rose. Excelsior, which means "Ever Upward," is New York's motto.
New York City was the first capital of the United States after the Constitution was endorsed in 1788. On April 30, 1789, George Washington was instated as the nation’s first president at Federal Hall, located on Wall Street.
The popular tabloid New York Post was initially founded in 1801 as a Federalist newspaper. It was called the New York Evening Post by Alexander Hamilton, an author of the Federalist papers and the nation's first Secretary of the Treasury.
The Statue of Liberty was a gift from the people of France to honor the United States' unchanging dedication to freedom and democracy and the coalition between both countries during the American Revolution. Established in 1886 on Bedloe's Island (later renamed Liberty Island) in New York Harbor, the statue was a welcoming symbol to the 14 million immigrants who came into the United States through New York until 1924.
New York City contains approximately 660 miles of subway track connecting 468 subway stations. The lowest station is 180 feet below street level. In 2011, over 1.6 billion people used the subway.
With three waterfalls in the U.S. and Canadian region, Niagara Falls has about 12 million visitors each year. The American Falls in New York is almost 180 feet high and 1,100 feet long. The Niagara River creates enough hydroelectric power to supply more than a quarter of all the power New York and Ontario use.
The National Baseball Hall of Fame is situated in Cooperstown, New York.
Car Shipping in New York

Factors affecting Car Shipping Costs

Car shipping costs are not fixed, and varying factors contribute to its pricing. This explains why car shipping companies request specific information before providing you with an estimate. The most common factors that influence the cost of shipping a car are:

1. Distance

One of the most critical factors is the distance to be covered while shipping your car. Shipping shorter distances usually cost less than longer distances. This is because most shipping companies charge per mileage, hence, the higher the mileage covered, the higher the price. Also, considerations are made for extra gas and extra pay for drivers when your car is transported over very long distances. 

2. Method of Shipping

The open and enclosed methods are the two primary methods of car shipping. The open method is the cheaper and most common method. It involves transporting cars in an open carriage. This method, however, is less safe than the enclosed method.

The enclosed method is used mainly by those who own luxurious and expensive cars. Also, those concerned about their cars being affected by dust, rain, and snow. This method ensures that the cars are covered and have no exposure to external elements. As a result, the enclosed method is more expensive.

3. Functionality

The state of the vehicle to be shipped also determines its cost. For example, suppose you are shipping a car that is not operational and needs to be towed or forklifted. In that case, your car shipping cost will be significantly higher than if the car is fully operational and can work without any help.

  1. Seasons
    Car shipping companies are typically in higher demand during summer. This can be attributed to the fact that most people decide to move or go on holiday during this period. As a result, cars shipped during this period will cost more than those shipped at other times of the year. 
  2. Location
    Areas that are not very accessible usually cost more, as shipping companies have limited carriers who can go to such areas, compared to larger cities. Hence, you can save some money on car shipping if you are located in a central and more accessible area.

    Cars shipped from remote areas often experience delays in pick-up and delivery times. 
  3. Pick-up and Delivery Flexibility
    How flexible you are with your pick-up, and delivery date also influences your shipping costs. If you are pressed for time and unwilling to adjust your pick-up and delivery dates, you can expect to pay more to ship your car at your preferred time.
  4. Weight and Size of Vehicle
    The higher the weight of your car and the bigger the size also determines its shipping costs. Larger cars take up more space in a carrier and affect the number of cars that can fit into the carriage. Also, there is a limit to the overall weight a car shipping truck can carry, hence, weightier cars cost more than lighter ones. The amount of gas consumed is also considered. 

Choosing the Right Auto Transport Company

To have a seamless car shipping process, you need to pay careful attention to the car shipping company you engage. Here are a few things to consider.

1. Reviews

Reviews are vital as they give you information about the experiences others have had with that company. If a company has a lot of negative reviews, you can trust they are not the best company to engage. Look out for companies with a great deal of positive reviews, as you can depend on them to give your car the kind of attention and care it deserves.  However, you should note that a car shipping company that has absolutely no bad reviews may be purchasing reviews.

2. Cost

You can request a quote from different companies and make a comparison to find out which offers the same services and has the most reasonable pricing. However, the lowest or highest cost does not necessarily equate to the best option. This is why you should confirm exactly what services each company is offering. 

3. Available Routes

Before engaging the services of a company, you should find out if your location is one the company plies. It is best if you speak to a representative of the company to confirm that their services cover both your pick-up and delivery location.

4. Transparency and Communication

It is also essential that you observe how the company communicates. If the representatives do not communicate properly or if the company generally uses a lot of vagueness, you should be cautious. Some companies exploit customers by using vague communications. 

Preparing Your Car for Shipping

Before you have your car shipped, it is best you do the following:

1. Empty your gas tank

You do not need a full gas tank to ship your car. In fact, you need just enough to transport your car to the pick-up point and from the delivery location. Usually, you only need to fill your tank to a quarter of its capacity for this. 

Filling your gas tank only increases your car’s weight, which consequently increases the cost of shipping your car.

2. Clean and Declutter

Both the interior and exterior of your car should be thoroughly cleaned. This makes it easier to identify if there was any damage to the vehicle during transit. Removing all unnecessary items also reduces the weight of your car. Although auto transport companies are responsible for the safety of your car, they are not held responsible if any item in your car is missing. Hence, all personal and valuable items must be removed from the vehicle before shipping.

3. Take Photographs

It would be best if you took photographs of your car before shipping to reference your car’s physical state before it is shipped. This helps provide evidence in case there are scratches or other damages to your car during shipping.

    The iconic New York City Subway system is the most extensive rapid transit system in the world when gauged by stations in operation. Most of New York’s subway systems are open 24 hours a day, compared to other cities that stop operations at night. Such cities include Hong Kong, London, Paris, Seoul, and Tokyo. The New York City Subway is also the most active urban rail transit system in the Western Hemisphere. It had roughly 1.76 billion passenger rides in 2015. Grand Central Terminal, also referred to as “Grand Central Station,” is the world’s largest railway station according to its number of train platforms.

    Public transport is crucial in New York City. For example, 54.6% of New Yorkers went to work in 2005 using mass transit. This contrasts with the rest of the United States, where 91% of people use automobiles to get to their workplaces.

    New York City’s commuter rail network is the biggest in North America. The rail network links New York City to its suburbs. It consists of the Long Island Rail Road, Metro-North Railroad, and New Jersey Transit. The combined systems merge at Grand Central Terminal and Pennsylvania Station and have more than 250 stations and 20 rail lines. The elevated AirTrain people mover system in Queens connects JFK International Airport to the New York City Subway and the Long Island Rail Road. A separate AirTrain system is scheduled alongside the Grand Central Parkway to link LaGuardia Airport to these transit systems. For intercity rail services, New York City is served by Amtrak. 

    Pennsylvania Station is on the West Side of Manhattan. It is where Amtrak provides connections to Boston, Philadelphia, and Washington, D.C., along the Northeast Corridor, and long-distance train services to other North American cities.

    The Staten Island Railway rapid transit system exclusively serves Staten Island, operating 24 hours a day. The Port Authority Trans-Hudson (PATH train) connects Midtown and Lower Manhattan to northeastern New Jersey, mainly Hoboken, Jersey City, and Newark. Like the New York City Subway, the PATH operates 24 hours daily. This means three of the six rapid transit systems in the world that operate on a 24-hour basis are wholly or partly in New York.

    There are 1,673 miles of Interstate Highways within New York (combined).   These highways control about 19% of vehicle travel in New York. At approximately 0.50 miles, I-78 is the shortest main interstate highway, while I-90 is the longest, traversing 385.88 miles (621.01 km) within New York. I-878, located in Queens, is the shortest active route in the Interstate Highway System at 0.7 miles.

    Local authorities manage small portions of I-278 in New York City instead of the state transportation agency. In addition, parts of I-87, I-287, I-90, I-190, and I-95 are part of the New York State Thruway system and thus are maintained by the New York State Thruway Authority.

    Despite New York’s heavy dependence on its vast public transit system, streets are a defining element of the city. As a result, Manhattan’s street grid plan greatly influenced the city’s physical development. New York City also has an expansive web of expressways and parkways, which connects the city’s boroughs to each other and to northern New Jersey, Westchester County, Long Island, and southwestern Connecticut via various bridges and tunnels. Because these highways benefit millions of outer borough and suburban residents who commute into Manhattan, it is quite common for motorists to be stranded for hours in traffic jams daily, especially during rush hour.

    New York City’s public bus fleet runs 24/7 and is the most extensive in North America. The Port Authority Bus Terminal is the main intercity bus terminal of the city. It serves 7,000 buses and 200,000 commuters daily, making it the busiest bus station in the world.

    New York’s airspace is the most active in the United States and one of the world’s busiest air transportation corridors. The three busiest airports in the New York metropolitan area include John F. Kennedy International Airport, Newark Liberty International Airport, and LaGuardia Airport. Approximately 130.5 million travelers used these airports in 2016. JFK  was the busiest U.S. gateway for international passengers in North America in 2012, while Newark Lierty was the 4th busiest in 2012.

    The Staten Island Ferry is the world’s busiest ferry route, carrying over 23 million passengers from July 2015 through June 2016 on the 5.2-mile (8.4 km) route between Staten Island and Lower Manhattan. It ran 24 hours a day. Other ferry systems shuttle commuters between Manhattan and other locales within the city and the metropolitan area.

    NYC Ferry, an NYCEDC initiative with pathways planned to travel to all five boroughs, was established in 2017, with second graders selecting the names of the ferries. Meanwhile, Seastreak ferry announced the construction of a 600-passenger high-speed luxury ferry in September 2016 to shuttle riders between the Jersey Shore and Manhattan. It is anticipated to start service in 2017; this would be the largest vessel in its class.

    Also, New York City is located in one of the world’s largest natural harbors. The boroughs of Manhattan and Staten Island are (primarily) coterminous with islands of the same names. In contrast, Queens and Brooklyn are located at the west end of the larger Long Island, and The Bronx is located at the southern tip of New York State’s mainland. This situation of boroughs separated by water led to the development of an extensive infrastructure of well-known bridges and tunnels.

    Manhattan Island is linked to New York City’s outer boroughs and New Jersey by several tunnels. The Lincoln Tunnel, which carries 120,000 vehicles a day under the Hudson River between New Jersey and Midtown Manhattan, is the busiest vehicular tunnel in the world. The tunnel was built in replacement of a bridge to allow unconstrained passage of large passenger and cargo ships that sailed through New York Harbor and up the Hudson River to Manhattan’s harbors.

Efficient and communicated from beginning to end. Bob Moran was superb in how he handled my urgent need to get me moved. From the dispatcher, Rose, to the kind driver, Ted, all treated my urgency with respect. My car was picked up 1 day sooner and delivered on time and was I happy. I had previously booked with another company and had to cancel after waiting for them 3 days with still no driver. Bob called as a follow up call and let him take over as soon as I cancelled with other company. He worked fast in arranging and taking care of our needs. Thank you

Larry, Just to let you know that the tractor arrived last evening in perfect shape. The driver was a kid from Poland who was a real delight-very courteous and competent. He drove the tractor off the carrier and then took a picture of me on it, said he had never shipped a tractor before! So thanks for the great hook up and service. If shipping ever comes up again, you will get the recommendation and of course, my work.

I booked vehicle transport with Ship A car Inc, twice in the past month. The first, the seller cancelled the sale the day that the hauler was scheduled for pick up. YIKES! Contacted Lisa from Ship A Car and she handled everything. I found another BMW K75 for sale, bought it..., and the first call that I made was to Lisa from Ship A Car. Once again, Lisa and Ship A Car Inc. handled everything exceptionally well. Vehicle pick-up and delivery by a company specializing in motorcycle transport. The vehicle arrived earlier than expected (2 days instead of 4) and in perfect condition. Lisa was great at communicating via email and phone (even for a customer that doesn't have an umbilical to his phone.) Would use them again..., in a second!

He even called me back immediately when I had one of those panic moments! He was the best! Giraldo, our driver was also awesome. Called, was there to pick up the car, told us when it would arrive and it did! Thanks to all, I would definitely recommend you.

The Ship A Car rep told me everything that I needed to know. Everything went as well as it could have. However, in-between times, I didn't get any updates. But as far as the information he gave me and what was done, it was spot on. The pickup was in Columbus, Ohio and the drop-off was in Frisco, Texas. The car got there a day earlier than expected, so that was a plus. I was happy about that. The driver was also great. He called and said he was about 40 minutes out. He dropped it off, signed the paperwork and received the money. I will recommend Ship A Car to anybody going that route.

Ship a Car does not ship your car, they contract transporters to ship your cars. They do the leg work for you. Kristina busted her butt to ship a low riding Corvette for me. She even tried to talk me into finding a local guy to do it cheaper! The car didn't run had a flat, needed to be pushed and turned. Kristina found the right team for the job! Good work, good price!!!!! Give that girl a raise! Kristina is the bomb diggity!🤩

I cannot say enough good things about this company! A+ service. A+ pricing. A+ speed. After realizing that my deployment to Texas who is going to last longer than four weeks, I was tired of using Lyft and I knew I couldn’t be without my motorcycle. I requested a quote from their webpage along with five or six other companies. Paul Murphy responded quickly to that email with the second to lowest cost to get my bike 1,230 miles from Ocala, Florida to Pharr, Texas and then followed up the next day with a voicemail. After comparing prices and reading the reviews, I knew this was the company for me. They did not disappoint! I spoke with Paul at the end of the business day on Thursday and within 15 minutes he was calling me to inform me that he had already placed my order with driver Eric Andrews of Andrews Transportation LLC to be delivered 3 days later on Monday. I spoke with Eric on Saturday to confirm where my bike would need to be left. He too was very professional and easy to work with. To my surprise, Eric delivered my bike a day early on Sunday morning. Thats right, my bike was delivered from call to drop in 2.5 days!!! Both Paul & Eric’s professionalism may me feel comfortable that my prize possession was in good hands. I would 100% recommend this company to anyone wanting to move theirs. Thanks guys.

Everything worked out perfectly with Ship A Car. We were helped by Christie, and she was perfect. My daughter was calling her every couple of days to see what the status was. Initially, we got started on a rocky road, but that was our fault because we had a vendor that we thought was going to help, and he was scamming. So, we were very glad when we got in touch with Christie. She talked us through what would happen and when it would happen. In the very end, she fulfilled those dates that she said. The gentleman who was driving was cordial and helpful. He had to park someplace else because our street is small. The car got here safely. I was really satisfied.

Then when he arrived he apologized again that he was a little late--GREAT COMMUNICATION. Wonderful people.

My friend referred me to Ship A Car Inc. I shipped my truck out of state and was concerned that it wasn’t going to arrive on time. The truck was picked up the same day I called Ship A Car and they had it delivered just two days later. It arrived earlier than I thought which made me a very happy camper. I have told my friends about Ship A Car, Inc. they actually deliver.

I couldn't have asked for better service. Janet was friendly, had a sense of humor, and got the job done. Within a few hours of my call, I had my car scheduled to be picked up the same day, at a cost that was lower than all the other "instant quote" places. I was waiting for 2 weeks for the dealership to find a shipper- she explained simply why it wasn't working, and fixed it. Couldn't be happier, money well spent here.

I needed to transport my car from Kentucky to Nevada. I requested a quote and received one via email. I then received a phone call from Bob M. Bob worked with me explaining the process for shipping a car and once I had sent in my paperwork he went to work finding a driver to transport my car. When the first driver's dispatcher called to let me know my driver's truck broke down, I immediately called Bob and explained the situation. He got to work finding a new driver for my car. Having Bob on my side, to arrange this transport was a huge relief to me and I was glad to know that things would be taken care of. My car arrived on time (actually it was there before I was expecting it) and l was very pleased with this company. I would highly recommend them and Bob M. to anyone looking to ship a vehicle safely and with no worries. Thank you.

I had a classic VW Beetle shipped from California to New York. Danny (the representative from Ship A Car) was the BEST! He explained everything to me step by step. I had never shipped a car before and I called a bunch of different companies and was feeling leery. But Danny was patient, very kind, and trustworthy. He explained everything to me. He encouraged me to look up the company on the BBB website, which I did. After doing my research, I knew this was the company for me. If you need to ship a car, CALL DANNY He's aces! My car arrived as scheduled and the price was fair. Thanks Dan - you're the best!

Driver noted on the contract each blemish as I took pictures of my car. Car was delivered in excellent condition. As was hoped, car was dropped off on the early end of the delivery time spectrum. My experience with Ship A Car Inc was excellent and I would recommend them without hesitation.

This is a company of thieves and liars. DO NOT SEND YOUR CAR with them. THEY WILL TRICK YOU AND OVERCHARGE YOU. They will lie to you on every step of the phone call. NOTHING, I repeat NOTHING THEY PROMISED or agreed with is real. They told me they would charge 200 dollars for commission, but they will charge you 3,4,5x more from your credit card. They will promise you a closed truck, but they will send an open truck. In addition to the worst service I had in my life, the supervisor dismissed my complaints for over one week and their company and/or employee STOLE MY CREDIT CARD NUMBER. After providing them my credit card number (I rarely use this credit card that I provided to them), my credit card was used in locations around their office location in Florida. THEY COMMIT CREDIT CARD FRAUD!! Be aware, this is a scam only surpassed by the one committed by the Wolf of Wall Street. I will make sure no one uses them again, I will take the appropriate legal action and report them to the Consumer Protection Bureau

Ship a Car is a life saver. I worked with Bob M. who was professional and eased my concerns about the whole process. Took all my calls and was very accessible. I used a different company that was completely unprepared to handle my reservation. Ship a Car was reliable and trustworthy. I'm happy to recommend them after my earlier negative experience with another shipper.

I recently hired Ship-a-Car to transport a car cross country. I had used another company several times in the past, but a friend recommended Ship a Car and they were substantially less expensive so I gave them a try. Everything was done as promised without any complications. The car was delivered in good condition. I now see that the reviews are quite mixed. Had I read them first I might not have used the company, but my experience was positive. I worked with Joseph.

The service rendered to me by Larry Farber was excellent. He went out of his way to help me promptly, courteously and with feeling. He was aware that during this process of getting my car shipped, my beloved wife passed away suddenly as a result of a Brain Hemorrhage. I was devastated and sometimes it was hard for me to concentrate. But Larry was very understanding and sympathetic. That was very commendable and he deserves high grades for his services.

Justen and Ship A Car did an OUTSTANDING job getting my car shipped from Bend, OR to Foothill Ranch, CA in a very timely professional manner. Johnny, who towed my car, was also a true professional. I would highly recommend this company.

Ship a Car Inc. has the best customer service, my representatives Joseph was so helpful. When my daughter?s vehicle arrived in Hilo port a few days early and I had to change the authorized person to pick up my daughter?s vehicle, he did it so professionally with no delays. My friend was able to pick up the vehicle with no problems. I?ll use Ship a Car Inc. again when I need to transport my vehicle and will recommend them to friends and family.

All transactions regarding shipping my new car from SC to NY went smooth. Willie Dublin handled the transfer and was eager to answer all my questions . It was my first time shipping a car so I was a little anxious. He reassured me everything was done professionally and that everyone involved in the transfer were highly experienced. The car came in perfect condition in a very timely manner. Thank you Willie Dublin for making it so easy. I would not hesitate to recommend your services at shipacarinc.com.

Was paranoid of using any shipping company after hearing nightmare stories. And WOW, this was not the case here. Totally professional!!! Lots of info given in the beginning, the quote was actually high and a company that was used to transport had it here when they said they would Lots of constant communication and made this an easy thing to deal with. Would definitely use it again!!!!

Bob M. was great. He worked so hard to help us with a tough transport in a short time period while sticking to our budget. I appreciate the time and effort he took to make sure we were able to transport our truck. He genuinely cared about us and wanted to make sure we had a good experience. Would highly recommend him for any transport needs!

Thank you so much for a perfect car transport experience. Your company is great, I see now why you are rated 5 star. Angle Wings Transport also did a perfect job or me. Their driver Don was very professional and stayed on schedule. I started the process by calling Ship A Car on Monday afternoon. Angle Wings could have picked up my car that afternoon, but I had a conflict. They picked it up on Tuesday and delivered it on Thursday-----incredible service!!!!!

Dana was great to deal with. I had a deadline to meet and she was very easy to communicate with via phone and email. She chased down the trucking company personally when they missed their pickup time and resolved the issue. I will use again.

TOTAL SATISFACTION!!! Begin of March, i shipped my Honda from CA to CO. I worked with Malisa from Ship-a-car company; Malisa was very helpful and honest. Honest because she kept her commission due only. she got a better deal from car transport, she gave me a lower price at $650. And Malisa contacted me regularly until my Honda was picked up. Totally, it took 6 days since the date i talked to Malisa to the date the Honda delivered at Arvada, CO.

Willie Dublin assisted me on a short notice request to have my two vehicles, a Honda Odyssey and a Hyundai Elantra shipped from Santee, CA to Round Rock, Tx. I initially had set-up a request with another company a month prior , told them my situation and the day I needed it due to my wife's and my job that would require transportation. They told me they can deliver on the requested date. The day prior of the initial pick-up, I received an email that changed the pick-up to 3 days later and a possible whole week before the car would make it. They told me that I never specified the need and that they told me that they said the pick-up could be 3 days prior. They had a whole month to find a transport company to fit that transport request. I cancelled with them, called Willie D. at ship a car inc and he had me set-up with a pick-up day the same day. He was fast, efficient and had great communication the whole way. I would recommend Ship a car inc and Willie D. if you can request him for anyone moving out of state. I also would like to thank Carlos at Carlos Transport who Willie D. found as he was very professional, on time and delivered on the day needed. Very grateful to both of them. Relieved a lot of stress on our out of state move.

I worked with Gabriel Lopez and he was professional and a pleasure to work with. Always stayed in contact with me and gave me updates. My only complaint would be is that the price was increased but other than that the service was fine.

From start to finish an all around excellent experience. Easy to schedule with, prompt and professional. The driver showed up to the minute of our scheduled pickup and delivered our car as planned. Both Ship a Car Direct and the driver were great communicators and provided exactly what they promised with no surprises. I would definitely use them again.

Cameron B was extremely helpful in explaining the process of shipping my vehicle. I was quoted a fair price and had no surprises or extra hidden fees. Will use them again in the event I need to transport more vehicles. Excellent professional service and fair competitive pricing.

The rep who answered the phone was a car person. He explained to me that his dad had lots of cars and he had a Dairy Queen and they parked their cars out front. I’ve always been around race cars and he has a racecar. So, out of all the people I talked to, whoever that rep was, he was the most knowledgeable. He is probably Ship A Car’s best salesman. The car was to be transported to my house and they said it would be here Friday. I was out of town and I was driving back from Fort Worth in the evening on Wednesday, and I get a call. The man said that he would like to drop off my car that night. I said that I was not even at my house and asked how he got down so fast. It was Wednesday. He said not to worry about it and asked if he could drop it off between 7:00 and 8:00.   I got up in the morning and my wife informed me that the sprinkler people were coming. So at 7:15, at least four pickup trucks and about eight guys showed up, and they all parked around our house. And at 7:45, a neighbor, two houses down, was replacing their fence. So, another four trucks showed up with eight guys. And accordingly, I’m going, “Where is this guy?” And sure enough, here he comes with the transport, zigzagging in between all these parked trucks. He asked where he would park. I told him to back it in our cul-de-sac and he did. Then, the local security guard asked if I was moving. I told him I was getting a car delivered. So, he stops. There must be 20 people, all watching. Then the driver asked if I knew how to drive a stick shift. He couldn’t get the car out of the carrier because he couldn’t drive a stick. So I told him I would help him. He’s got two cars in the carrier, mine, which follow in the front, and another car that’s barely turned over. It’s shaking and rattling, and he backs that out. He puts it in neutral and it’s just sitting there idly. He comes back in and gives me the keys. I asked him if he realized how much space there was between the door and the carrier and I couldn't get in the car. He’s a skinny guy so he gets in the car. I told him to wind the window down, get out of the car and let me see if I can hold on the top of the carrier, and I’ll get in like a racecar driver. So, that’s what I did. And the moment I turned on that car, I was in heaven. The sound of that car gave me goosebumps, and I backed it up probably about a half a mile per hour, super slow. I drive around all the cars and I said that I got to inspect this because it was way dustier than what the photo showed. I looked at it and it was perfect. Finally, my wife started talking to the two other people that wanted to talk to me but I said that I gotta get this in the garage and check it out. The driver was gonna leave and once he leaves, if there were any problems, it’s sorry, Charlie. Then, we paid the driver and he was all smiles because it was 1s, 5s, 10s, 20s and 50s. We hadn't had a chance to go to the bank to just give him a 100. And he got in his trailer. It was a very nice experience.
